Giuseppe Nisticò (Forza Italia) was elected President of the Region, defeating Donato Tommaso Veraldi (Italian People's Party).

For the first time the President of the Region was directly elected by the people, although the election was not yet binding and the President-elect could have been replaced during the term. This is precisely what happened in 1998, when the centre-right decided to replace Nisticò with Battista Caligiuri, and again in 1999, when a centre-left majority supported by dissidents of the centre-right, who had formed the Democratic Union for the Republic, ousted Caligiuri and replaced him with Luigi Meduri of the Italian People's Party.

gollark: Well, not exactly.
gollark: Ah, yes, the joys of PHP.
gollark: A standard library patched together from C, Perl, and random junk; inconsistent, specialcasey syntax; terrible protection against XSSing, etc; terrible file-based routing.
